That is sorta how I made my impluse a few

summers back (a while ago at least) I think I still have a pic somewhere on my

computer....

Hey, whatta ya know, I found it....

Here is a pic,

according to the image properites, I uploaded it to my computer on September 19th,

2002. Which pretty much means that I did make it two summers ago....wow....thats a

long time ago....

Anyways, you can see that I used a more complex way, I

can't really tell if your way is better though, it seems effeicient though.

Nd9 if you build it that way it won't be realistic

because wicked twister has heartline twists.

what kind of sets do you have and how many

[misery]

I would think that the spikes wouldn't be very

stable without supports and fall over when the train is launched, but good luck!

If you can find a better way to do it,

thin I'd like to see it.
I have 3 SS seta and a Rippen Rocket, and I have a

friend with 2 sets who is willing to let me borrow some pieces.
I am a little

worried about the spikes being flimsy, but I think I can make it strong enough.
Update: Both spikes and launch are complete, now I just have to build supports for

them.
Also, before I forget, when I left I was building a hyper coaster that I

eventually finished, but never posted pics because it lost to much speed in the

turnaround and failed to work properly, just in case anyone was wondering about it.

I saw the topic of how your going to make the track

twist and thats clever! Nice job!

Can a mod plz close this topic? Construction was

finished but whenever I launched it the force from the launch caused everything to

shake pretty bad, and the weight of the train, along with the shaking, the front spike

kept falling over.
